Padres' Nick Pivetta: Cruises to second win
Rotowire
Pivetta (2-1) earned the win Friday against the Rockies after allowing three hits and one walk in seven scoreless innings. He struck out 10.
Two of the three hits were doubles off the bat of Kyle Farmer, but Pivetta was still able to cruise Friday while not allowing a runner to even reach third base. The right-hander now boasts a 1.59 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 18:4 K:BB over 17 frames, although he's been particularly dominant at home with an active 14-inning scoreless streak at Petco Park. Pivetta draws a difficult test to his home success against the Cubs in his next projected start.

Padres' Nick Pivetta: Weak effort at Wrigley
Rotowire
Pivetta (1-1) took the loss Saturday, giving up three runs on six hits and three walks over three innings as the Padres were bounced 7-1 by the Cubs. He struck out four.
After a dazzling 2025 debut Sunday against Atlanta, Pivetta crashed back to earth in this one, tossing 44 of 76 pitches for strikes before getting the hook. The right-hander has never been known for his consistency and has never finished a season with an ERA below 4.00, so a quick correction shouldn't have been surprising. Pivetta will take a 2.70 ERA and 8:3 K:BB through 10 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home next weekend against the Rockies.

The 32-year-old Pivetta signed with San Diego late in the offseason after posting a 4.14 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 172:36 K:BB across 145.2 innings with the Red Sox last year. Pivetta will look to keep rolling in his second start, currently scheduled for next week on the road against the Cubs.
